BURWASH ROLLS of HONOUR Revised September 2020 Including (At the Back) a List of All ‘500’ Villagers Who Served in the 1914 1918 Great War 1 BURWASH ROLLS OF HONOUR Revised September 2020 Including (at the back) a list of all ‘500’ villagers who served in the 1914 1918 Great War The printing of the Centenary edition was funded by the Burwash Branch of the Royal British Legion. Since then this Roll of Honour is ‘online’ only. 1 2 Civil Parish of Burwash.

J Named on the Memorial in St Joseph’s Roman Catholic Churchyard, . Spring Lane, Burwash, or buried there. C Born in or connected with Burwash, but not named on any of the village . memorials. Nearly all local Great War memorial committees throughout the country seem to have been rather hap-hazard in their researching and selection of names. VISITED = This grave or memorial has been visited since 1998, very often . on the biennial village pilgrimages to France and Flanders. 2 3 Notes This Burwash roll contains the names of 138 dead from the First World War and 29 dead from the Second World War plus 2 officially listed Civilian War Dead. (Page 28.) This 29 does not include an RAF pilot who crashed within the Parish and is buried elsewhere nor similarly a Luftwaffe pilot. (Page 29.) The population of Burwash in 1914 is estimated to have been about 2100. (based on the 1911 census) It is believed that 500 men and women (one woman died whilst serving) served in the Forces during the Great War. There is a list of 491 of them starting on page 30. Most of the information comes from the Commonwealth War Graves Commission, the East and West Sussex County Record Offices, the Imperial War Museum, the Public Record Office at Kew, ‘Soldiers who died in the Great War', studying graves in the churchyards and countless Press cuttings. Old editions of the Burwash and Burwash Weald Monthly Magazine have given us the list of those Serving and assistance from families has been most appreciated. The addresses are normally those given to the Imperial War Graves Commission by the next of kin immediately after the war. Some addresses are deduced from press cuttings. Any further information or corrections that the Reader may be able to provide on any entry in this Roll would be most appreciated.

  • Adherents from the Rape of Hastings and Pevensey Lowey of the Jack Cade Rebellion of 1450 Who Were Pardonned
    Adherents from the Rape of Hastings and Pevensey Lowey of the Jack Cade Rebellion of 1450 who were pardonned In June 1450 Jack Cade became leader of an originally Kentish rebellion of small property holders penalised by high taxes. The rebellion spread to involve men from neighbouring counties, especially Sussex. Cade assumed the name John Mortimer and demanded the removal of several of the King’s chief ministers and the recall of Richard, Duke of York. The rebel forces defeated a royal army at Sevenoaks, Kent, on 18 June, and went on to London. There the rebels executed the lord treasurer, James Fiennes. A degree of lawlessness followed and Londoners drove the rebels from the city on 5-6 July. The government persuaded many of the rebels to disperse by offering pardons, but Cade continued his activities. He was chased down, wounded and captured at Cade Street near Heathfield, Sussex, on 12 July, and died of his wounds whilst being transported to London. The list below is of those from the Rape of Hastings and Lowey of Pevensey who had taken part in or supported the rebellion and were granted pardons. It gives a good indication of how widespread this rebellion was. It attracted adherents from across the social spectrum and involved whole communities. Undoubtedly there was no way the normal severe capital retributions could be used to punish all those involved or whole communities would have been decimated and made unproductive, but some ringleaders were singled out and executed.

  • World War One: the Deaths of Those Associated with Battle and District
    WORLD WAR ONE: THE DEATHS OF THOSE ASSOCIATED WITH BATTLE AND DISTRICT This article cannot be more than a simple series of statements, and sometimes speculations, about each member of the forces listed. The Society would very much appreciate having more information, including photographs, particularly from their families. CONTENTS Page Introduction 1 The western front 3 1914 3 1915 8 1916 15 1917 38 1918 59 Post-Armistice 82 Gallipoli and Greece 83 Mesopotamia and the Middle East 85 India 88 Africa 88 At sea 89 In the air 94 Home or unknown theatre 95 Unknown as to identity and place 100 Sources and methodology 101 Appendix: numbers by month and theatre 102 Index 104 INTRODUCTION This article gives as much relevant information as can be found on each man (and one woman) who died in service in the First World War. To go into detail on the various campaigns that led to the deaths would extend an article into a history of the war, and this is avoided here. Here we attempt to identify and to locate the 407 people who died, who are known to have been associated in some way with Battle and its nearby parishes: Ashburnham, Bodiam, Brede, Brightling, Catsfield, Dallington, Ewhurst, Mountfield, Netherfield, Ninfield, Penhurst, Robertsbridge and Salehurst, Sedlescombe, Westfield and Whatlington. Those who died are listed by date of death within each theatre of war. Due note should be taken of the dates of death particularly in the last ten days of March 1918, where several are notional. Home dates may be based on registration data, which means that the year in 1 question may be earlier than that given.

  • Roads in the Battle District: an Introduction and an Essay On
    ROADS IN THE BATTLE DISTRICT: AN INTRODUCTION AND AN ESSAY ON TURNPIKES In historic times travel outside one’s own parish was difficult, and yet people did so, moving from place to place in search of work or after marriage. They did so on foot, on horseback or in vehicles drawn by horses, or by water. In some areas, such as almost all of the Battle district, water transport was unavailable. This remained the position until the coming of the railways, which were developed from about 1800, at first very cautiously and in very few districts and then, after proof that steam traction worked well, at an increasing pace. A railway reached the Battle area at the beginning of 1852. Steam and the horse ruled the road shortly before the First World War, when petrol vehicles began to appear; from then on the story was one of increasing road use. In so far as a road differed from a mere track, the first roads were built by the Roman occupiers after 55 AD. In the first place roads were needed for military purposes, to ensure that Roman dominance was unchallenged (as it sometimes was); commercial traffic naturally used them too. A road connected Beauport with Brede bridge and ran further north and east from there, and there may have been a road from Beauport to Pevensey by way of Boreham Street. A Roman road ran from Ore to Westfield and on to Sedlescombe, going north past Cripps Corner. There must have been more. BEFORE THE TURNPIKE It appears that little was done to improve roads for many centuries after the Romans left.

  • Little Common in the Past
    Little Common in the Past [by Wendy Boorman, a former resident of Little Common and who used to run the local Brownie Group] Early days... In 772AD King Offa granted some high ground surrounded by an area of marshes to a Saxon chief named Byrna. A piece of land in those days was known as a tongue or horn so Bryna’s land became Byrnahornan or Barnhorn and a farm was settled here. Cooden came about in the same way after a Saxon called Codigis was granted land further to the south by the sea. In 1066 there were a few isolated houses scattered round the area but no village as a lot of the ground was still very marshy. At that time Cooden was known as Coding. About this time there were some very big storms after which the land began to dry up. In 1588 the Wheatsheaf was first built as a staging post between Hastings and Brighton. In the 19th Century... By 1800 a village known as Slyders Common had built up with a big triangular green which was common land and used for grazing purposes. The Wheatsheaf Inn was across from this and there was also a blacksmiths forge owned by the Crocker family and a wheelwrights shop owned by the Dick family. The village pond supplied water to both of these. From the green there were cart tracks, one leading to Cooden Down and the sea, another to Barnhorn and a third to Bexhill this is now The Twitten, it went through St Mark’s present church yard and past Kewhurst House which was then Lloyd’s Signal Station.

THE WALDEN LANDSCAPE IN THE EARLY SEVENTEENTH CENTERS AND ITS ANTECELENTS Thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the University of London by John Louis Mnkk Gulley 1960 ABSTRACT This study attempts to describe the historical geography of a confined region, the Weald, before 1650 on the basis of factual research; it is also a methodological experiment, since the results are organised in a consistently retrospective sequence. After defining the region and surveying its regional geography at the beginning of the seventeenth century, the antecedents and origins of various elements in the landscape-woodlands, parks, settlement and field patterns, industry and towns - are sought by retrospective enquiry. At two stages in this sequence the regional geography at a particular period (the early fourteenth century, 1086) is , outlined, so that the interconnections between the different elements in the region should not be forgotten.

  • King Edward I and Edward II, Battle and Eastern Sussex 1272-1327
    King Edward I and Edward II, Battle and Eastern Sussex 1272-1327 Edward I, 1272–1307 by Unknown artist oil on panel, 1597-1618 22 7/8 in. x 17 3/4 in. (580 mm x 450 mm) uneven Purchased, 1974 NPG 4980(6) © National Portrait Gallery, London Edward I cannot have had particularly fond memories of eastern Sussex after his visit with his father during the 2nd Barons War before the Battle of Lewes (14 May 1264) and its aftermath (the 1st Barons War vs King John was 1215-7). They had entered Sussex from Kent on 2 May and their first experience was an affray on the Kent-Sussex border, after which a severe reprisal took place. Carpenter says, '315 archers were beheaded in the Weald in the parish of St Mary, Ticehurst, in the place called Flimwell in the presence of the king … ' After this Henry III and Prince Edward moved on to the Cistercian Robertsbridge Abbey, where they were ‘entertained’, but they demanded 500 marks (1 mark = 2/3 of one pound or 13s 4d [67p). Converted to a 2016 value one mark might be equal to £650 today) to be paid to Edward to spare the monks’ lives. The next day Abbot Reginald of Brecon and the brothers of the Benedictine Battle Abbey went out in procession to meet the king and give him a loyal welcome, but Henry was still angry and demanded 100 marks from the abbey as he said that some of its tenants had been at Ticehurst. Prince Edward demanded another 40 marks.
